First Super Mario 3D Land review pulls an eight from EDGE

EDGE has gone live with the first review of Super Mario 3D Land, the first core Mario title for the 3DS, awarding it eight out of ten.

The notoriously critical mag praised the game's use of "some of the best, most subtle use of 3D" the console has seen so far, and called it "fresher than any handheld Mario in years". It was less impressed with the grab-bag power up gameplay.

Super Mario 3D Land launches in November, exclusively for 3DS.

Thanks, CVG.
